Phase diagrams of 3-component lipid bilayer mixtures containing cholesterol reveal major differences among the different types of lipids. Here we report that mixtures of cholesterol together with… (More)

Graphene exhibits extraordinary electronic and mechanical properties, and extremely high thermal conductivity. Being a very stable atomically thick membrane that can be suspended between two leads,… (More)

We have undertaken a series of experiments to examine the behavior of individual components of cell membranes. Here we report an initial stage of these experiments, in which the properties of a… (More)

To clarify the response of soil organic carbon (SOC) content to season-long grazing in the semiarid typical steppes of Inner Mongolia, we examined the aboveground biomass and SOC in both grazing… (More)

The Sludge granulation in an anaerobic reactor consists of two steps: nucleation and maturation of nuclei. Nucleation as the starting point is of particular importance. In this paper, the nucleation… (More)

DC transmission systems are playing a more important role today. While HVDC transmission technology wins on key aspects over AC transmissions, there are still problems which make it difficult to… (More)

Taking the rectangular window as an example, the summation in the expression of discrete Fourier transform is solved by the integral operation. Under the condition of asynchronous sampling, the… (More)

We created a comprehensive set of health-system performance measurements for China nationally and regionally, with health-system coverage and catastrophic medical spending as major indicators. With… (More)
